Prior to this, Mr. Martin served as a Partner at Seabury Consulting and was a Vice President at the Swiss SR Technics Group, an MRO service provider to the aviation industry. He also worked for Airbus, Lufthansa and Iberia.
Diederick van der Plas, a Senior Managing Director and EMEA Head of the Corporate Finance & Restructuring segment at FTI Consulting, said, “Frank’s arrival is a testament to our commitment to attract top talent who not only understand the aviation sector but have the tech ops experience to support leadership teams with critical projects at the very heart of their business functions.”

I look forward to working with my new colleagues across FTI Consulting’s growing platform to continue this value creation.”
Mr. Martin’s appointment further builds on the firm’s investments in aviation industry talent, which includes a global cast of senior aviation professionals with restructuring, business transformation and merger integration expertise and in-depth functional capabilities in human capital, commercial, network, ground operations, capital raise, strategic communications for airlines, airline-related business entities and aerospace.
